Even Tricky Dick, "I am not a crook" Nixon released his taxes..CNN Money.

CNN...http://money.cnn.com/2017/01/23/news/economy/donald-trump-tax-returns/

Hit the link, and you will see that even Tricky Dick released his taxes. And, starting with Jimmy Carter, all of the presidents have.

Most people know that Trump has something to hide, because..if he didn't, he would have released them. But you see, he doesn't care what people think. He has raised the question, "Why are people still talking about this?"... I guess he hasn't figured it out....

He promised to release his taxes after the election That is what he said...But, he does not follow what he says. And he hasn't figured it out, that this one....releasing taxes..is a very important one.....Why? Because tens of millions of Americans file their taxes, and wonder what Trumps taxes look like. And he did promise to release them..

the more his base will love him.

I want to see them also, but unless they help prove what a criminal we all know he is, it wont solve anything.

His base simply adores him because he gives an official "stamp of approval" for all their hate and bigotry.

Being in hoc to the Russians is un American. Doesn't feel right for the base. Why couldn't he borrow from fellow patriotic Americans?? Most of the base doesn't know he cannot get loans from patriotic American banks..and then the issue will be, Well....why can't he get loans from American banks..eh????

Drumpf does not want that one out there for huge public discussion...Or discussion among his base

Putin is a racist and a homophobe, big time, his base are racists and homophobes, big time.

The so called mature part of the party, what little there is, seem willing to go along with the unthinkable if it gives them what they want.

There simply is nothing good about the GOP or whatever term you call them, not anymore.

Unless McCain and Graham, for instance, start making LOUD noise about the obvious collusion and subsequent dangers to our country, then FUCK them they are just as guilty as he is.
